Godparent Guide

We collate some videos to give you some different views on Baptism. You will see four selected randomly and then a list of all the others.

N.B. Each of these videos will have a certain religious / non-religious position and may be from a specific Church - to help you understand that context we place icons by the video: Anglican | Roman Catholic | Baptist | Methodist | Non-Religious - all views are those of the person / organisation making the video.

I have seven god children, five girls and two boys. I am good at remembering them at birthdays and Christmas - but actually there is no real handbook. I am not as religious now as I was when I was given the role (so maybe I should have been sacked), so I don't honestly think I have done much for their spiritual welfare, but I would definitely be there for them if they needed me.
